In depth
Verdict
Rated 88, ATHEBY looks the one to beat back in maiden company. He’s been competing in conditions races without success but the return to 7f will suit. Roamin In Gloamin placed over 6f at Kempton recently and can figure again while both Thomas Equinas and Sixties Baby finished closer on their latest starts and may improve further. Golden Whisper and Imperial Mountain should have benefited from recent debuts and look best of the rest.
